Portrait of Doctor Devaraigne 1917

Amedeo Modigliani's 1917 "Portrait of Doctor Devaraigne" showcases the artist's signature style. The elongated face, almond-shaped eyes, and simplified forms are characteristic of his portraits. The use of bold colors, particularly the vibrant red and orange hues, adds a sense of intensity and emotion to the subject's countenance. This painting, like many of Modigliani's works, embodies the aesthetic of early 20th-century Modernism, exploring a departure from traditional portraiture.
